Painters and Their Works – As Featured in Popular Literature

(IJAS Publications, 2011) Olkusz, Ksenia; Olkusz, Wiesław; Rzyman, Aleksander; Pracownia Literatury i Kultury Popularnej oraz Nowych Mediów Wrocław; Uniwersytet Opolski; Uniwersytet Zielonogórski

Painters and their biographies as well as their works and their “secret messages” and circumstances of their creation seem naturally predisposed to catch the interest of all sorts of writers. This article presents an array of painting-inspired motifs and plots which have featured prominently in literary works over the past decade. Among the dominant themes there are murder mysteries and the interplay between artists and the people surrounding them, their models obviously being given the place of honour.

Wprowadzenie do estetyki chińskiej. Kategorie harmonii i wieloznaczności

(Uniwersytet Jagielloński, 2014) Świętek, Ewa; Uniwersytet Zielonogórski

The article presents the fundamental assumptions of Chinese aesthetics. Chinese philosophy and aesthetics are as rich as Western aesthetics, and avoiding the implications of that fact may slow the development of aesthetics as a whole. In this article, the etymology and sources of aesthetics are discussed, and the range of research interests of comparative aesthetics of China and the West is outlined. The author also describes selected categories of Chinese aesthetics – suggestiveness (analyzed with the idea of hanxu) and the concept of fǎ, which is considered a law within Chinese tradition. The category of harmony is discussed in reference to music, as well as to nature and society.

Rodzina w procesie konstruowania obrazu osób niepełnosprawnych. Rola płci w niepełnosprawności

(Uniwersytet Wrocławski ; Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa, 2012) Rudek, Iwona; Uniwersytet Zielonogórski

The issues related to the role of the family in the process of creating relationships with ill and disabled people are discussed in the article. All individuals posses concepts of the disabled that form their attitudes towards such people. The image of a disabled person is responsible for one’s attitude towards the handicapped. The family should create an environment where children observe and learn positive patterns of behaviour towards people with disabilities which, in turn, form the basis upon which children’s attitudes are shaped. The process of perception of other people is dependent on many factors – one of them is the family. The author draws attention to the issue of gender in disability. The term “disabled person” turns out to be gender neutral. Women with disabilities consider themselves to be treated as a “third sex”. The discrimination of disabled women results from a lack of sensitivity to the sex of the disabled. This points out the need to change the attitudes towards people with disabilities in early childhood as well as the necessity to pay more attention to the gender of disabled children. Sex becomes a matter which is forgotten, perhaps even becoming irrelevant. Women and their function are pushed into the background, which results in the gender-related stereotyping of their social roles, a more difficult way of career advancement (the so-called “glass ceiling effect”), lower wages for women working in the same positions as men, and the low participation of women in public life.

Wychowanie w rodzinie według Janusza Korczaka

(Zakład Historii Edukacji Instytutu Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego, Wydział Nauk Humanistycznych i Społecznych Karkonoskiej Państwowej Szkoły Wyższej w Jeleniej Górze, 2013) Bartkowiak, Edyta; Uniwersytet Zielonogórski

The article is an attempt to unravel the mystery of education in a family based on the continuing validity of Janusz Korczak’s thoughts in his brilliant and timeless essay How to Love a Child. In the book, divided into 116 autonomous parts, the Old Doctor is trying „to learn, to understand and to love the child”, to touch the essence of parenthood. He studies the situation of a child in a family basing on three aspects: with reference to the child, to his parents and to the mutual relations between them. As a result, there came into existence three distinct fields of investigation. The first one constitutes the child, the second one- an adult, in this casea parent, and the last field of investigation constitutes connections between children and parents.
